The Wayne doll house
Have some haunted doll au, since it's been bubbling away in my mind.
The bat cave is large and sprawling, many layers and tunnels and hollowed out cracks in the walls. It takes many years to fully reinforce to prevent stray kids from tripping into stagnant waters or fall down crags as he once did. The doll cave, as it becomes known, is in one of the deepest, darkest corners, one where the lights of the furnished caverns above don't reach.
It's one late night sitting at the computer when it suddenly occurs to Bruce that his first encounter with a doll was at the well entrance, many levels above.
There was nothing there when he went back.
-
The justice league stared at the subaru. The subaru, having no eyes, did not stare back.
The seven of them had just finished a very long, arduous mission, and narrowly escaped government censure after the base they'd been raiding had turned out to belong to some corrupt official. With the alert up, they couldn't escape through city airspace, or even in their hero suits.
So civilian it was.
Batman had hotwired some bloke's car while the rest of them ducked into alleys and shop bathrooms, but the problem remained. There was seven of them. And five seats.
"I can shift into something more suitable for being carried," suggested j'onn, "but I believe one of us might have to hide."
"Foot well?" Hal tried, and everyone looked around at the tall, bulky, broad heroes.
"Think they'd have to go in the boot," Barry finally said. Everyone immediately turned to him. "No."
Batman spoke up before the discussion could devolve.
"I think.... I would be best for that."
The team stared.
"Batsy?"
Having no lungs meant he could not drag in the tired sigh he wished, but whatever force allowed this body to talk was capable of approximating something suitably resigned.
"As I am, I am... incapable of fully passing as human. It would be best if I remained out of sight."
"So just? Go change? I swear we won't be weird about whoever you are under the mask. Even if you're like, bald."
"Thank you, Wally, but I'm afraid I'm being serious." Reaching for the mask in broad daylight was unpleasant, but the glue and wires held as he gave it a few thorough tugs. "It doesn't detach."
Everyone stared. Clark reached out as if he wanted to check, but withdrew.
"Do you even have a civilian identity??" Oliver eventually asked. "Because at this point I'm genuinely not sure."
Wayne Enterprises and Queen Industries had a meeting that same evening. "Hn."
"Can we go back to the 'incapable of passing as human' part?!"
"We can discuss it in the car," he snapped, stalking past Barry and popping the boot. "In case you haven't forgotten, we're on a time limit."
For once, that seemed to encourage them, and batman, with great dignity, folded his joints and cape into the small space, ignoring Hal's mutter of 'what kind of contortionist -' as he slammed the lid. With a little shuffling he managed to activate his comms.
"I will inform the watchtower of our delay."
"Batman, they're tapping all outgoing signals, you can't -"
"It won't trigger," he interrupted, before he twisted his consciousness and sent it spiralling across the country.
Bruce awoke with a groan, stretching his limbs and taking a moment to marinate in his annoyance before he reached for the comm and voice modulator on the beside table.
"Batman to watchtower, we've encountered delays. If the Texan state government calls we haven't entered the state in six weeks. Batman out."
-
"Alien?"
"No."
"Reanimated corpse?"
"No."
"Uh... Demon?"
"Hm. No."
"You're not just a meta human, are you?"
"No."
"Vampire?"
"No."
"Robot??"
"No."
"Batsy, please, someone's got to win the bet eventually. How do we even know you're not lying?!"
"You don't," Batman said, not looking up from his paperwork and Flash groaned, letting his sticky notes fall to the floor as he buried his head in his arms.
"One day," he bemoaned to the keyboard, "one day we'll figure it out."
"Until then please keep your eyes on the monitors."
Flash groaned again.
-
Robin ducked under superman's arm as he scuttled down the corridor, laden with the night's haul of snacks. The real problem wasn't getting them - stopping league members from raiding the kitchen would be extremely counterproductive - but keeping them until he could return home to his human body to eat them. Batman had started searching him each time they left and it was really cutting into his daily sugar intake. Unfair! Just because he didn't actually use energy to stay up my night to fight crime, it felt like he did!!
'Oh, you're broken, Robin, oh, don't go out until the glue has fully set, Robin' his arm was fine! It wasn't like there was much crime to be fought on the watchtower anyway! At least not physically.
So he was pretty pleased with himself until he went to set the snacks down and found that the tar like glue they used had soaked through the sleeve and gotten all over his chocolates.
With his other hand, he tried to pry them off, wincing as the wrappers tore and stuck. He tried to shake it, ignoring the way his elbow rattled in the joint.
"Come on, come on - aw, cheezits."
The arm fell off. Robin stared despondently at the limb, surrounded by torn wrappers and dripping black glue where it connected to the elbow. The sour stink of formaldehyde filled the air.
He was going to be in such trouble with Bruce.
The click of the door jerked his head up.
Flash stood in the doorway, wide eyed. Robin stared back.
Flash screamed.
Oh yeah @dehydratedmockingbird have a thing

I am the designated tour guide for my aunt and uncle who are visiting from Poland so I asked them what they want to do/see and they said, “We don’t need to do a lot of sightseeing — we just want to go to Times Square.”
😤
They’re going to be here for 10 days so that’s plenty of time to see a bunch of stuff. 😂
THERE’S A LOT MORE TO NEW YORK THAN JUST TIMES SQUARE.

okay you said you have favourite episodes and moments, so what are your top five daredevil moments?
djkafljkdaljfk ad
The Hallway Fight Scene in S1E2 leaves me breathless every goddamn time. The way he pushes off the wall with his head, the way he so tiredly brings his arms up, the way he's staggering, all one goddamn take. Then pair it with him gently carrying the kid out after all that violence? That is Matt Murdock in a nutshell.
As mentioned too, the final fight/speech with You Know Who in S3E13. His voice is absolutely shredded and raw, he is so tired, and that moment where he puts his hands on you know who's neck and comes... so. very. close. And then just can't. 'God knows I want to. But you don't get to destroy who I am!' Shivers, every time.
There are so many moments with Matt and, let's call her The Nun to avoid spoilers, in S3. Basically every conversation he has with her is this beautiful, tragic interplay as she balances kicking him in the ass when he needs it with gentle encouragement. It's exactly what Matt never really had in his life, and what he desperately needs, this kind of support without letting him get too deep into his own head.
OF COURSE THE PRISON FIGHT IN S3 IS HERE. THE PRISON FIGHT, HOLY SHIT, HOW??? HOW DID THEY DO THIS IN ONE TAKE???
For some reason, I love, love, love Foggy's moment where Matt in S3 says The Ridiculous Martyr We Can't Be Friends bit and Foggy just goes... "No." "No?" "No!" Like, Foggy just sees the bullshit and goes... Bullshit denied, I'm still your friend, fuck you. And I love that SO FUCKING MUCH.

listening to someone be confidently wrong while you cannot correct them because of a) their position, and b) social rules is a special level of hell

eyrie voice I love babies I hate babies I understand babies very well I am terrified of babies I will simply carry around a baby if handed to me I am not at all traumatized by babies
#i go through this cycle every two weeks I’m getting it out of my system now#post the same five fun facts but bot howdy I think#silly post to disguise character lore in the tags#anyway! with the birth of Aoife and her younger sister eyrie made up excuses to come back#right around the correct time just to see the babies#with Aoife’s sister though they got the worst pit in their stomach for days#and came back even though it had only been six months#so they were there for her birth but sadly her death as well#eyrie was around a bit when Halvi was first born#they were around for her mother’s pregnancy. mainly providing what they could to see after their needs#rather than being there emotionally#halvi has a very different view of eyrie compared to like. bisha and bijou#she knew what her mother told her and what scattered bits she recalls#and it’s that they often seemed distant unfeeling and uncaring—but deeply sad nonetheless#one of halvi’s far back fuzzy memories is of eyrie sitting out on the rooftop garden#of the small little one room house her mother had#they were watching the stars and she would try and talk to them#and they would look down at her and not speak#but beckon for her to come up and sit with them#her crawling into their lap and them wrapping her up and holding her close#mumbling singing something and rocking gently#she has a hard time hating them because she knows they loved her#but they were hurting and she was young and she figured out far too late that it’s not her job to save her parents#boy howdy I’m gonna draw halvi today#i tlak about her enough I should just draw her#oc: eyrie kisne#oc: halvi

If you're writing fanfiction, and lately you just feel like, well, maybe your writing is well-constructed, and logical, and it has plot twists and cool action and tropes and the language is alright, but you just feel like it's just missing something, let me remind you: feeling.
A story lives and dies on feeling, on soul. All the technical skill in the world doesn't matter if there's no soul it can bring out. Remember what you felt about what you wrote and let that bleed through, or shine through, even if that means it's unpolished or unrefined or leaves a plothole.
Don't be afraid to put bits of mirrors into it in which you can see yourself; that's what makes it come alive.
Obviously, this works from the other side as well. If it has soul, if you're letting the things that matter to you matter, if you're pouring your heart into the story itself and not just into making it, it will shine through. And it won't matter if your words are a little rough around the edges or there's a plothole or if the pacing is off. If a subject matters to you, there's no guarantee it will matter to the reader; but what's universal to reading is not that you agree with someone, but that you instinctively feel with them. If you feel it, and you allow it to matter, they will feel with you. If you don't feel with the kid with the shattered dreams waiting for something, anything to happen and spur them into action, then the most eloquent writing technique will make it seem empty and lifeless, unimportant.
If you feel strongly with what you're writing, technique usually pales in comparison because your instinct of expressing yourself takes over what you would usually have to construct diligently.
Just. Allow yourself to pour life into your story, and it will come alive.
#long post#It's not 3am but I'm still tired enough to have these sorts of thoughts#Just. I feel like at some point the stories I read and wrote in MHA stopped being about what the authors felt about the show and more about#what they thought about the show#which isn't bad but if you're going to write a 100k analysis of what would have happened if ... then maybe trying#to make it into a story and stopping halfway through because you forgot to add in the feeling#is not the best course of action#Sure Izuku is devastated after the rooftop#but we've all seen so many takes of that scene it has gotten really tough to still ... feel something about it#so it's kind of like saying this is a major emotional moment for the character so I'll try to make it matter#but I can't bring myself to care#But I want to get to the parts I'm interested in!#Well yes but like. If you don't have the patience to write the build-up#then don't force yourself to write it out#We all know what happened. Gloss over it with five sentences that tell us something new#sentences that evoke emotions. Or hold them#Which is the same thing.#Basically what I'm saying is#The best writing is when you're emotional and when you don't care about what you write the reader won't either#I'm not nearly coherent enough for this.#Just. Care#Yes I'm bitter I nearly planned one of my stories to death again bc I nailed every detail down in advance and then lost interest#How could you tell#But as soon as I noticed - I don't think I'm the only one with that problem#So many plot points seem to happen bc the author feels they have to happen and it has no emotional impact bc they don't care#On the other hand. They are writing and I am currently not so who's really clowning themselves here?

So apparently KOSA (2024 edition) is getting either thrown out until next year or put into effect in six days. That was a guesstimate based on a different person saying that's when Congress is back in session and may be false.
Update that's going in the main post at the top: it has enough support to pass Congress.
It failed the last two times because people were voting against it.
This time, KOSA has traction among the pro-LGBTQ parties. Because nobody is fucking calling their bullshit and screaming from the rooftops that calling it the "Kids Online Safety Act" is misleading.
What will it passing do?
Nothing much, only prevent any education on LGBTQIA+ (it's that stupid fucking argument about us grooming kids again), shut down nearly every fandom space on the internet, and make it required for most big tech companies to have your ID.
Want to have resources for kids to discover their identity readily available? Yes? Then fucking speak up against this stupid fucking bill.
Fandom spaces like Tumblr, Twitter (? I thought the MAGA assholes liked Musk?), Tiktok, Archive Of Our Own, and any other website that hosts fanfic or fanart? Either shut down permanently, forced to uproot to a different country and down for a while (best case scenario, and they likely won't be able to send any data, and therefore fanfics, to the US), or gutted so that you only get to put G rated cishet ships on there, if any shipping at all. How to avoid that? I've already said it: Call your fucking representatives.
Want to avoid the fucking dystopic task of being legally obligated to give big tech your government issue ID? Again, cause an uproar. Call your goddamned representatives.
If they can pass this, the ripple effects could be catastrophic.
So, for fuck's sake, any Americans that can impact this stupid fucking bill and see this? Do everything in your power to shut it down because you have until February twenty sixth (26th) to send this bill back to where it belongs.
And if you can't do that? Reblog, copy my tags, and boost the signal.
Sorry not sorry for ranting, making you scroll through that, and swearing a probably excessive amount, but KOSA is a bill with a GLOBAL IMPACT being passed by ONE COUNTRY because some old people are scared of two guys with who were told they were girls kissing within five hundred miles of a child. Fuck this shit, I shouldn't have to worry about bad bills in America but I fucking do because I use the internet and would like to avoid mass censorship. Fuck this, fuck conservatives, and fuck the fact that some boomers make your country's policies.
Now, if you won't mind me, I'm going to be up until three in the morning downloading fanfiction or copying and pasting them into a a text file if I can't so I can read them by the end of the week.
